The spectacular Ferrari 458 is the vehicle to a fantastic degree credited with giving Ferrari its magic over after a few years of except exactly what remarkable automobiles, and now its successor has shown up. Fulfill the Ferrari 488 GTB 2016, a 660-drive twin-turbocharged “entryway level” Ferrari that increases current standards once again.

Six years after it has been introduced Ferrari 458 Italia has been succeeded by a Ferrari 488 GTB 2016. Launched in February, 488 GTB had its world premiere on Geneva Motor Show in March of 2015. The greatest surprise about it is that Italian engineers abandoned the concept of naturally aspired engine and fitted 2016 Ferrari 488 GTB with a turbo charged one. This allowed them to use 3.9-liter V8 engine, instead of 4.5-liter V8 unit they used for 458 Italia. The advantages include far more horse power with better fuel economy and less pollution and CO2 emission.

The new berlinetta brilliantly encapsulates Ferrari’s experience in both F1 and the WEC, where the 458 GT holds the World Championship title and has won its category in the last two editions of the 24 Hours of Le Mans. The new model also exploits to the full the know-how gleaned by Ferrari technicians over the last decade through the XX programme which makes extreme track-only cars available to gentleman test-drivers.

2016 Ferrari 488 GTB Redesign

Designed by the Ferrari Styling Centre, the new car features very sculptural flanks which are the key to its character. Its large signature air intake scallop is a nod to the original 308 GTB and is divided into two sections by a splitter. The wide front spoiler features a double profile to improve the thermal efficiency of the radiators positioned at the sides. At the centre two pylons are combined with a deflector which channels air towards the flat underbody. The broad, low tail is also dominated by aerodynamic solutions, including an innovative blown spoiler which generates downforce without increasing drag. This works in conjunction with an aggressive ramp angle for the diffuser which features active flaps. The greater height required for the diffuser was achieved by repositioning the exhaust tailpipes. The circular LED tail lights have also been redesigned.

The designers have managed to rethink almost every detail on the outside of the new Ferrari 488 GTB, and yet retain the resemblance to the 458 Italia. The front bumper is completely redesigned, with three large air intakes to keep the nose of the car glued to the surface at high speeds and enhance its aggressive look. On the sides, the designers created large air intakes above the rear wheels and triangular area around the door handles, a tribute to the original 308 GTB from 1975. The rear now has two instead of three exhaust pipes and a large central light, similar to the F1 cars. Apart from looking beautiful, the new Ferrari 488 GTB 2016 manages to have a drag coefficient of 1.67 and incredible 50% more down force than its predecessor.
